Sacha Baron Cohen Spits At Larry King
By: Sara
The movie The Dictator finally opens today after a huge media blitz by its star, Sacha Baron Cohen. The trailer first popped up during the Super Bowl, then SBC showed up in character at the Oscars and doused Ryan Seacrest, and now Larry King is getting into the act. Even though Larry no longer has a show on CNN, he did promise that he would still do special assignments. It looks like one of his first hard hitting interviews is with Admiral General Aladeen.
King asks Admiral General Aladeen the fluffy stuff up front (favorite dictators), but then gets right into the Seacrest incident. Aladeen's answer is gross, but possibly true. Things get ugly when the Admiral General finds out that Larry King is Jewish (this is where the spit comes in) and talk of nuclear weapons leaves Aladeen screaming for Piers Morgan.
My hope is that the movie is as funny as or funnier than the promotion leading up to the film.
